Mould Design
After the prototyping phase, the designers prepare a 2D and 3D draft of the plastic injection mould that needs to be created and set up a meeting with the customer to check that the design fully complies with the objectives or whether it is necessary to make changes: also at this stage, customer requirements and objectives are analysed and improvements are proposed for aesthetic, efficiency and use purposes that are performed directly on the mould.
Following the draft there is other in-depth testing, including filling, deformation and thermal analysis: through the use of the Moldflow software it is possible to simulate all the moulding phases and see exactly how it fills.
Once the results are all positive and that the necessary choices have been applied to the designed mould, the process moves on to creating the mould.
